This week, Edye is joined by Jevon Willis, Director for the Center of Diversity & Inclusion at Hope College and they're talking about what equitable education looks like and how diversity and inclusion has to be equitable in order for it to be successful.

"I believe that education is the civil rights issue of our generation. And if you care about promoting opportunity and reducing inequality, the classroom is the place to start. Great teaching is about so much more than education, it is a daily fight for social justice." - Arne Duncan
